FAQs About Quilting

Quilting can sometimes be a little confusing.  Especially if you're new to the process.  We've pulled together some of the frequently asked questions that we receive and separated them into T-Shirt Quilt / Memory Quilt questions and Longarm Quilting Services questions.  If you cannot find an answer to your specific question, just let us know here.

T-Shirt Quilt / Memory Quilt FAQs

What is the average cost of a t-shirt quilt?

Your quilt will be unique based on your design choices. Example: 20 t-shirts made into a collage-style twin sized quilt would cost approximately $285 plus the cost to ship the quilt to you upon completion.  In this example, we provide the backing and binding fabrics as well as the batting.  Our services would also include longarm quilting and binding.

What is the expected delivery time for a custom memory or t-shirt quilt?

Allow four weeks from the time we complete the order details with you, and we receive the items at Pink Heart Quilting.

How will I know when you have completed my quilt?

We will email you with an invoice for the finished quilt's final cost and pictures.  Once payment is received, the quilt will be ready for pick-up or shipping.

When is payment expected?

Upon completion of the quilt and before delivery via pick-up or shipping.  We will email you with pictures of the quilt and an invoice with the final cost, including return shipping.

May I choose to provide the required fabrics?

Yes, we have provided the fabric requirements based on the quilt size you choose in the order form.

Who is responsible for shipping the quilt elements to begin the quilt and shipping the completed quilt if pick-up is not possible?

You are responsible for shipping the elements to be included in the quilt to us at Pink Heart Quilting.  We will ship the completed quilt to you via your preferred shipping method.  USPS is the most economical shipping method.  We will include the cost of the return shipping in the final invoice.
